Mass Flow Meter Summary

The GF92 inline type gas mass flow meter combines FCI's highly reliable thermal dispersion, no-moving parts flow element design with an advanced microprocessor-based programmable transmitter in a rugged 316 stainless steel nickel braze package for superior low flow performance.

The GF92 is a heavy duty industrial gas mass flow meter that offers a wide turndown range of 1000:1, up to 3 different gas calibration groups and its low flow performance characteristics make it ideal for a wide range of applications including hazardous environments.
   

Applications

 
Compressor fuel monitoring Hydrogen make-up gas monitoring
Nitrogen purge monitoring Fuel gas monitoring
Process gas monitoring Digester gas monitoring
